Minor problem, application attempting to retrieve favicon.ico in application root directory, instead of the theme directory.

Moodle version 1.8.5 and 1.9.3+ running in a Centos linux environment Apache/PHP 4.3.11, I have scanned my http logs and I have hundred's of these errors, all coming from different versions of Firefox/Mozilla Browsers, not seeing this problem with other browsers.
Strange behavior scanned the following code in a few source browser pages, the reference is properly filled, all seem ok.
[root@services12 standard]# grep -r favicon.ico *
header.html: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo $CFG->themewww .'/'. current_theme() ?>/favicon.ico" />
[root@services12 standard]#
I believe based on the above logs 'favicon.ico' is being fetch from the root directory when a page is about to be written but can not identify the exact page, only from Mozilla Browser.
Regards
